Panthers open season with scoreless loss to Cyms

Cyms drove the opening fifteen minutes of the second half but didn't see results from two penalty corners (saved by Panthers' Jess Luchetti) and a goal attempt ten minutes in, also rebuffed by the Panthers.

Cyms' unrelenting pressure in the goal circle paid off when Kennedy Chapman scored her second goal of the game.

This was closely followed by a third goal for Cyms as Madison Smith converted a rebound from an initially unsuccessful penalty corner.

Panthers tried to claw back control in the last twenty minutes of the game.

Despite multiple goal attempts and two penalty corners, they failed to get onto the scoreboard.

With ten minutes to go Deborah Orrock made up for an unfulfilled Cyms penalty corner by secreting the ball into the net while Panthers' goalie Jess Luchetti was reacting to a prior attack.
